Two sides to every story, who knows how he was provoked or what not. I can’t say I’d do this, they’ve banned pennies in Canada anyways, but I can see the anger a lot of fathers have after being alienated and cut out from the kids and still paying.

Some situations are even worse. I have an entitled niece who conned a sucker into marriage. She wanted another child. She had two previously from different men, who she did not marry.

She conned him into letting her go the artificial insemination route. While she was pregnant, she decided that she didn't like him, so filed for divorce.

She had the baby, and had his name put on the birth certificate. Then she took him to court and was awarded child support for the girl until she turns 18. The girl is 16 now and the poor guy has two more years to pay, for a child who isn't his, and who he has never seen.

The girl is a wonderful person though.

Some terrible women use the child support money for frivolous things.

I can see doing this with alimony in some situations.

But the guy is an a**. Those are his kids. He obviously did not consider the effect this tantrum would have on them. Cruel. It is not their fault if there is a fault at all.

If he was my dad I’d hate him.

Yes, and I sure this helped heal any bad feelings she had towards her father.

This is so childish.

There is no story that justifies this

Sorry, I’ve been through divorce and know exactly how screwed over as a guy the system is...

This however was the act of a selfish a$$hole, I don’t care how he may have been “provoked”...

Clearly this kid and their mother are better off without him in their lives...

And I say that as someone who advocates heavily for fathers...

I have no doubt when I pay my last child support payment I will celebrate, but I won’t try to humiliate or embarrass my ex.. let alone do it in front of my child.

This guys a loser and a prick, and hopefully he doesn’t have any other offspring.
